why post this, its stupid, it annoys people and there is nothing anyone could ever say or do to make you be able to play poker to a reasonable level.

Im not trying to have a go mate, im really not they are just the facts

The way this played, its hard to read Hero as having a big PP like JJ, just calling down on all streets until the flop. A lot of people play JTs this way. An agressive villian plays AK they way it played out. QQ doesn't seem likely with a A on the board.

RobRod · #6 04-15-2006, 02:55 PM

I think this is an insta call. The only hand that beats you is AA and villian could be reraising with a lot more than AA here. I'd put him on QQ-AA, or AK.

Do not fold here!!! One hand that beats you, and you dominate everything else. Everyone has those nights where they are focusing on one big leak like not making bad calls. Fix the leak, but don't become weak-tight.

Another thing: I bet if you didn't make such a weak minraise on the flop, he wouldn't make this bet, and you wouldn't be in this situation. Next time either call or make a big reraise, $50ish. I would probably call here and try to get more value out of KK and QQ. I would be interested to hear what others said about raising this flop because the only thing that calls is AK and AA.

Minraise AND a set fold on the same hand? Fly over here so I can pimp-slap you!

That's not sinning. The love of money is the root of all evil.

I don't think you should play so high!
